Pax Bellum ARID is a sweet looking piece of reef machinery

One look at the Pax Bellum ARID in person and you just say “Wow! I want that! But what does it do again?” As a device, it just looks bad-ass and that whatever job it does, it will do well. But knowing what it does makes it even more impressive when you get your hands on it.

The Pax Bellum ARID, as we noted before, is a high-performance macroalgae reactor putting a lot of chaeto in a small footprint. How they do it and how its constructed is just impressive.

Nothing about it feels “lightweight” and is just a beautiful design and build — from the unique heatsink, to the branded wrapping and everything in between. Pulling out the center rod, it feels sturdy and nice to see the string of high-intensity LEDs attached to the center post. It just feels — well, impressive.

If you ever get a chance to see this in person, make sure you do, it truly is a work of art.
